Chapter 24: It's not good to be a deputy squad leader (second update!) )
After being silent for a long time, Li Hao finally spoke: "Old squad leader, there is no shop in front of you, no village in the back, and the troops have been marching and fighting, and there is no time to stop and rest at all, we can only take one step at a time!" ”
"My opinion is that in the next march, as long as we encounter villages and towns, we will find a way to buy grain, even if it is at a high price!"
"There are so many people, and they are all lightly and seriously wounded, and they have to reserve food for at least five days!"
The old squad leader shook his head and replied: "Five days is 400 catties of rice!" ”
"The troops should march in a hurry, and each soldier should carry a maximum of fifty catties of rice. There are so many other belongings in our cooking class, even if we can buy so many rice, we can't take them with us! ”
"Two hundred and fifty catties of rice, this is already the limit of our cooking class!"
"Don't forget, when we're on the march, our cooking squad is faster than the infantry. Before eating, you must rush to the front of the army to prepare a meal in advance and wait for everyone, and you can't affect the marching speed of the troops because of cooking and eating! ”
Li Hao frowned and didn't listen, at this moment he only had one idea in his mind, how to solve the transportation problem of the cooking class!
In the past few days, he has a personal understanding, marching with a large number of weights on his back, he can still eat a short distance, and he will not be able to keep up with the team even if he does not tire people out for a long distance.
You must know that there are countless long-distance marches waiting for everyone to face in the next Long March, and this problem must be solved.
"Mules and horses! Transported by mule and horse! Li Hao suddenly thought in his mind.
But the troops did not have mules and horses at all, at least Li Hao did not see them in the 37th Regiment.
When Li Hao's brows involuntarily wrinkled deeper and deeper, the old squad leader suddenly interrupted.
"Haozi, what are you thinking? Didn't I hear you talking! ”
"Old squad leader, you say it again, I was distracted just now!" Li Hao reacted quickly.
"Haozi is still too young to hold his breath and not calm enough!" The old squad leader thought secretly in his heart.
Then he said: "The food is not needed for the time being, and the food sent by each battalion and company can last for three days!" ”
"What I'm most worried about now is the nutritious meal requested by the regiment leader!"
"The regiment commander gave a death order, tomorrow we have rabbit meat, and the day after tomorrow there will be nothing!"
"Don't let those wounded be like ordinary soldiers, just eat on wild vegetable soup! If you don't have nutrition, you may even hurt your body! ”
As soon as the old squad leader finished speaking, he looked at Li Hao with a worried look.
The hat of the deputy squad leader on his head was given to him by the regiment commander at the risk of violating discipline because he could hunt and fish.
If the wounded have no nutritious meals to eat within two days of becoming the deputy squad leader, then he, the deputy squad leader, will definitely become a joke and lose the face of the regiment leader.
Li Hao's already frowning brows wrinkled even deeper at this time.
Hunting and fishing take time, and it takes a long time.
Then the troops will march for at least two days, and there will be no time for themselves to do these things!
After a long time, Li Hao didn't think of a solution.
I could only shake my head and answer helplessly: "Old squad leader, you can only take one step at a time!" ”
"It is impossible to travel one or two hundred miles without rest, as long as the troops stop and rest, there is a way!"
Tonight was the easiest march since Li Hao crossed over and became the Red Army.
A rifle, five bullets, a dilapidated fishing net being transformed, plus a knife, these are all the belongings on Li Hao's back.
There were fewer things on his back, and the pace of the march involuntarily increased a lot.
Li Hao walked quickly, but did not rush forward regardless of the stunned, but observed the surroundings while marching.
The old squad leader's worries have been ringing in his ears, he has just become the deputy squad leader, and he must not become a joke because he can't complete the task!
It is necessary to seize every opportunity to hunt for prey on the march and ensure the nutrition of the wounded.
Li Hao secretly made up his mind in his heart.
At this moment, his eyes are like a high-speed camera, searching both sides of the mountain road for all available opportunities.
There are many opportunities, and the winding mountain roads pass by the river from time to time and shuttle through the woods.
But the speed of the troops was too fast, everyone marched with their heads down, and there was no time for Li Hao to seize these opportunities.
"Stop!"
After marching continuously for nearly twenty hours, Li Hao, whose legs were numb, finally received an order to stop the march.
"The cooking team immediately set up the pot, boil water for everyone to soak their feet first, and then cook on the fire!" Before he could catch his breath, the old squad leader's order reached Li Hao's ears.
Hot water foot soaking is what Li Hao has to do every day, no matter how tired he is, he will insist.
"Let's go to the fish cage!" Li Hao, who was soaking his feet, decided.
There were troop marches everywhere, and the prey must have been scared away.
Only the fish in the water are not scared away, and fishing at night is unrealistic, so you can only get into the fish cage!
This is my only chance to get a fish tonight.
"Brother Zhang, Brother Wang, you go with me to chop bamboo, cut vines, and make fish cages!"
When there was still an hour before the troops set off, Li Hao took two people to collect the fish cages.
The longer the cage sinks under the water, the more fish may be harvested at the end.
Without affecting the march and hurrying, Li Hao insisted until the last moment to collect the fish cage.
"Rewarding!" Wang Bing, who was getting better and better with Li Hao, shouted excitedly.
The source of nutrition for more than a hundred lightly and seriously injured people was all on him, which was too much pressure for a doll who was only thirteen years old, and Wang Bing saw all this.
But who let Li Hao have this ability, and the entire 37th Regiment has the ability to get fish and prey!
So no matter what Li Hao does, Wang Bing tries to help as much as possible.
The three of them only made three fish cages, but the rabbit internal organs have stinked because of the long time, and the effect of attracting fish is better, and each fish cage has nearly ten trash fish!
"Tonight's fish soup has been settled, and when we arrive at the new position tonight, tomorrow night's nutritious meal will be solved!" Li Hao said with a long sigh of relief.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the troops finally arrived at the position requested by the superiors at the ferry.
As soon as he sat on the ground, the company commander Zhang Yu rushed over panting.
"Old squad leader, the regimental headquarters received an order from the superiors, our 37th Regiment will fight here with the other two regiments of the main force of the division, and will block the White Army here for three days and three nights to cover the main force of the Red Army crossing the Xiang River."
"So the cooking class must prepare in advance, and when we cross the Xiangjiang River, blow up the pontoon bridge, and get rid of the white dog chasing soldiers behind us, it will be a lot easier, everyone will hold on for a few more days, persistence is victory!"
"I'm leaving the team to buy food again!" The nerves that the old squad leader had just relaxed tightened again.
Then he ordered: "Wang Bing, you take everyone to cook~ Haozi, Zhang Yun, the three of us immediately change our clothes and prepare to go to the white area to buy food!" ”
